Well im just getting ready to head to the dyno....im hoping for 230whp on 10psi so we will see im tuning with hondata s300 ill post vids and dyno sheet tonite!!!

nice man just took a look at your boosted thread:

Link to his boosted thread

looks real good man. pretty sure you will be close to 230. good work.
torque will be nice tooo.

hondata s300 is pretty sweet, you runnin on a p06 or p28?

Your dump setup is sexy.Post numbers asap.

Where are you going to dyno? Im in need of a tune and i've been looking into speedtech. I know they have one

Thanks guys, its running on a p28 ecu, so basicly things didnt go the way i wanted to so here comes another late night of problem solving, the boost controller that came with the hondata unit failed to operate properly and i hit almost 15 psi needless to say i had a small heart attack but things were ok, we tried to troubleshoot on the dyno but was unsuccessful and couldn't finish the tune, so im trying to figure things out but cant get any response of the boost controller. dnt really kno whats wrong, i double and triple checked the set up and made sure i had the right pin out and still no luck, so tomorrow at 4pm we are going back to tune on 7psi (regulated by the wastegate spring) and see what we can come up with! has any one had problems with the hondata boost controller or know any tips on how to wire it up properly?!?!? maybe i missed something

also DKRM pm me and i can help u get a good price on a dyno!

Use a manual boost controller...my haltech unit went out as well..as did my friends hondata unit.It seems too common..

are you running the hondata boost control solenloid?

[rexload]

$7 ebay boost controller here for about 8 months, no problems so far.

are you running the hondata boost control solenloid?

Yea I am, just can't get it to work, a11 is the pin out rite? I just went out and got a MBC so I'll just use that on the dyno tomorrow, would be nice to get the hondata controller working but I'm outta ideas...

[drummersteve7]

yes a11, you know if you open Hondata's SManager.
Go to help --> contents --> search.
type in boost control

then take a look at the boost control solenoid installation.
should be everything you need.

how are you routing your vacuum?
any pics? lemme know.

would like to get this solved for you.
Each pressure source has advantages and disadvantages.
Try using a pressure source from the intake manifold first, and then experiment with other sources if the boost is not stable.

Have you tried setting a boost limiter right above where you set the boost controller? that will keep you from over boosting.

ok so i swapped out the hondata boost controller for a manual one and it worked great, on 10psi i made 212whp and 230ft/p not to bad for a sluggish motor, i wanted to hit 15psi but didnt wanna push my luck, i'll post the dyno pics on saturday!

[drummersteve7]

is this a healthy motor?
did you turbo an unhealthy motor?
uh oh!!!! as my 1 month old says!

or did you make it un-sluggish?

I had the same issue when I connected mine - Open the ecu and found that they hadn't fitted the boost controller part of the circuit (EGR circuit)
I took it back and they gave me the correct ecu straight away.

If its not that, you can send me a copy of your basemap and I can check the settings if you like.
Are you running the solenoid via fixed duty cycle, boost by gear, or gear based target boost? And what is your activation pressure set at?

The motor as it was tested 5 months ago was healthy, now running it on a fmu for a while prolly shortened the life span up to this point....only getting 211whp was kinda lame...i thought i should make at least 230 240... car runs great now... but i dont know..im really tossing around ideas of getting a new motor but dont really know where to start... as far as the hondata boost controller goes, im satisfied with the manual one for now, as ive lost trust in this system and come to think of it im not too sure if they soldered those pieces to the board...i should check that out and see...
